Socket’s threat research team has detected six malicious npm packages typosquatting popular libraries to insert SSH backdoors.
cjs-rename
Advanced tools
Move your JS files and it will update any dependent files with the new path.
Inspired by https://github.com/timruffles/misnomer/blob/master/README.md.
Given a module a bad name that is used all over your codebase and tests? Sounds like you want to rename a CJS module, and this here module can do that for you:
> cjs-rename lib/some-bad-name.js lib/some-good-name.js
Moving:
- moved lib/some-bad-name.js to lib/some-good-name.js
Fixing:
- [1] lib/foo/bad.js
- [1] lib/foo/qux.js
- [1] test/foo/bar.js
And magically, where you saw:
require('../../lib/some-bad-name');
You'll now find:
require('../../lib/some-good-name');
Search by filename
Don't want to type out filepaths? Then add the -s
flag to do a search.
Notice how it moves both files in the lib
and test
folders.
> cjs-rename -s some-bad-name some-good-name
Moving:
- moved lib/some-bad-name.js to lib/some-good-name.js
- moved test/some-bad-name.js to test/some-good-name.js
Fixing:
- [1] lib/foo/bad.js
- [1] lib/foo/qux.js
- [1] test/foo/bar.js
Drymode
Drymode will show you the affect the command will have, without actually saving
any changes. Just add the -d
flag.
cjs-rename -s -d old new
Drymode: Will not save changes
Moving:
- moved lib/folder/old.js to lib/folder/new.js
-moved test/old.js to test/new.js
Fixing:
- [1] lib/folder/foo.js
- [1] test/foo.js

var Rename = require('cjs-rename');
var rename = new Rename({
from: './source/path',
to: './where/to/move/to',
// optional
cwd: proces.cwd(),
dryrun: false,
mode: 'path',
});
rename.run(function (err, changes) {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
} else {
console.log(changes);
}
});
// Also supports promises
rename.run().then(function (changes) { ... });
// If you set 'options.dryrun', then you need to save your changes

.js
and .coffee
extensions.node_modules
folders.something(require('...'));
.cjs-rename
commandlanguages.js
so it should be pretty easy to add support for other
languagesrename.files
xtnd.map
to map over an array and ignoring undefined
options.from
can match multiple files--search
flag for searching by filenameThe MIT License (MIT)
